A blast around Berowra
Corner of Gully and Berowra Waters Road.
I changed the location from Quarry Road Track to Berowra because it was a lot direr than I expected, so thought it'd be good to do a loop around the Berowra track instead!
beat the rain at Appin
North end of Burke St, Appin. There's a small parking area here at the trail head.
Note that the map shows Market Street connecting Appin Rd to this location but that is actually a firetrail and will not work for drivers who should take King St (next block South) and enter from there.
with all this rain around it seems appin is most likely to be the dryest MTB track in Sydney so a few social laps will be the go ,good opp to check the place out before the rock wallaby enduro in 2 weeks and for all those who are not riding dirt works but want to get out for a ride come and join us for a bit of fun!
I am open to changing start time to suit others If it helps.
only dry track in Sydney!
park in street, meet out the front at the pool type gate as main entrance will be closed and ride down to track ,There's there is room to park several cars
Their address is Mount Annan Drive, Mount Annan NSW 2567. See:
ride down to track on fire roads and do 2 or 3 laps then ride back ,no rush just an easy ride at moderate pace with stops in between laps.
Newbie at Ourimbah
Enter via Red Hill Rd, Ourimbah State Forest. On your right will be 'TreeTops' for the kids and it's large-ish carpark. Carry on past there and the first small clearing which is were parking used to be, and is where the 'Browns' single track turns (you might see riders on your left here). Please do not park in this car park.
Parking and official trail head is now designated a further 350m or so up the road where there is a larger area. There's a CCOMTB notice board here by the trail entrance (on the left as you drive up the hill). Park up nose to curb or as directed.
Sorry about the late notice, anyone keen for a couple of laps at Ourimbah? I've only been around the track once so if there is anyone who knows the area and is willing to take the time to show me around it would be greatly appreciated. Ride will be just a casual cruise. Anyone is welcome
Berowra, Sunday Morning
Corner of Gully and Berowra Waters Road.
Weather doesn't look like it will improve by Sunday, so I'll reschedule for a later Sunday!
Just a loop around Berowra Hts as was planned for Tuesday. It will probably still be wettish, but the track drains well and hence should be all right.
Wednesday SOCIAL Nightride [Terrey Hills]

Family ride @ Kosciuszko

This was just created in retrospect so we have a gallery for the pictures.
wingello easter ride
4Km SW of Wingello village on Caoura Rd there's a small base camp within the forest - seems as good a place as any.
I reckon wingello is an awesome place for group rides ,it has such a remote feel about it, anyway I think 1 lap of the "willo" loop including the new bits of singletrak would be a blast,then revisit some of the single track bits just to add a few extra km then a coffee and feed at the little cafe near the station would make a nice end to the ride.
Ourimba on Good Friday
Enter via Red Hill Rd, Ourimbah State Forest. On your right will be 'TreeTops' for the kids and it's large-ish carpark. Carry on past there and the first small clearing which is were parking used to be, and is where the 'Browns' single track turns (you might see riders on your left here).

Hey,
As was being discussed on the forum I'm heading up to Ourimba this good friday. Never been before so gonna explore the area or if people in the know fancy coming all the better. Plan on being on the trail for 11am
Its not going to be anything too stressful, just a social ride, enjoying the pleasures of a day off work
Rydal Easter Tuesday
The main rd in has been dusty as all get up so in an effort to keep on the good side of the locals it might be best to come in via the showground.
From the highway come into Rydal, cross the train tracks and take a left before the Pub (Showground signposted.)
Go around the top side of the show ground and follow the road around to the left. This will take you around towards the top side of the cemetery. from there a couple of cross rd will bring you back tot he bicentennial trail and thus the car park
We're not racing next Tuesday due to the holidays so a few of us plan to meet up at 4 and go for a social ride instead.
All welcome
